Chinese Water Painting

Painting is another category in the four arts. China has a long tradition of fine painting, dating as far back as the Neolithic period. By the Tang dynasty (618-907), exquisite and delicate watercolors featuring noble ladies and court life were produced. The tradition of Chinese painting continued to flourish as Imperial Art Academies were created. Subjects of traditional Chinese painting include beautiful women, birds, flowers and landscapes. Watercolor and ink are the most common materials used in Chinese painting until late 19th when oil painting was introduced to China.
